Today, we plug-in Sura Ultra-Modern Complex, Lagos.

The world over, businesses and homes get affected the most whenever there is insufficient electricity supply. The Empowering Economies Initiative is a demand-driven initiative designed to power up more businesses through the provision of clean energy.

Just as we have done in Sabon Gari Market in Kano state and Ariaria Market in Abia state, we are live in Lagos to plug-in the popular Sura Ultra-modern Market today, the 26th of October, 2018.

Sura Shopping Complex is plugged-in as an IPP Electrification Project. The Vice President of the Federal Republic of Nigeria, Prof. Yemi Osinbajo would be there to commission this vital project.
